chicken broth

making homemade chicken broth is so therapeutic

and a bit tedious at the same time 

therapeutic and tedious

not synonyms 

but here's what i mean

therapeutic:

the chicken broth makes your whole home smell oh-so-good

it tastes divine

it makes all your other recipes that need chicken broth taste even better

it makes you feel accomplished

tedious:

you got to watch all the fat rise and spoon it out

if you want a perfect clear broth your must strain it through cheesecloth

yes, cheesecloth

but its optional 

when im lazy i just spoon the fat off of the top

but when i feel like impressing ryan

i strain it through cheesecloth

yes, cheesecloth

i divide the cb into many individual ziplock bags

it can get messy quick

and some people might think you are crazy 

but is it worth it?

oh yeah 

here is the recipe i use
